Average source completeness across verified programs.
ItalyApplications for 2026/2027 are closed — the next window opens in Fall 2026 for the 2027/2028 year. Tuition is €18,150 a year, confirmed for 2026-2027 by an official-source audit on 2026-08-12, plus a €4,000 pre-enrolment payment that is deducted from the fee. This site previously showed no figure at all for Cattolica.
The official program page states that applications for Academic Year 2026/2027 are closed, and that the next application period opens in Fall 2026 for Academic Year 2027/2028. That is unusual enough on this site to be the headline: nearly every other page here describes a cycle you can still act on.
If you are planning for 2027/2028 this is useful early warning and the timing works in your favour — you have most of a year to prepare rather than the few weeks that several programs in this catalog leave you. If you are trying to start in 2026, this one is not available and no amount of contacting admissions changes that.
It also means the requirement and fee details here should be read as describing the last published cycle. Confirm everything against the official page when the Fall 2026 window opens, because a program that skips a year of applications has a year in which to change its terms.
€18,150 per year, confirmed for 2026-2027, plus a €4,000 pre-enrolment or seat-confirmation payment that is deducted from tuition. That figure came from an official-source audit on 2026-08-12; before it, this site showed no annual amount for Cattolica at all, because the record noted only that income-banded private tuition applied and that a band table would have to be imported before any number could be published.
The correction is worth stating rather than quietly absorbing, because the earlier position was defensible and still wrong in effect: a reader was told no figure existed when a published one did. The rule that produced it — do not estimate a banded fee from its top, bottom or midpoint — remains right. What was missing was a second look at the official page.
After the audit, Sapienza publishes a band rather than a figure — €300 to €1,500 a year for international students with foreign income, by country category — and this site keeps it unranked for the same reason it keeps Bologna and Siena unranked. Italian medicine pricing splits three ways: flat private fees you can compare, published bands you can bound, and income assessments that produce no number until you are assessed. Reading the structure matters more than reading a comparison table.
Unlike Milan, Bologna and Padua, Cattolica does not admit through the national procedure. It is a private program: applications go directly to the university and selection is through the university's own admission test. The requirement is a secondary school diploma valid for university admission.
Teaching is entirely in English at the Rome campus within Gemelli Hospital, and the award is a six-year Laurea Magistrale in Medicina e Chirurgia at 360 ECTS. Being sited inside a hospital is a structural fact about where the clinical years happen rather than a claim about quality, and it is the kind of thing worth confirming against the current program page when the next cycle opens.
Local-language competence is normally required for patient contact. Cattolica's sponsor notes were re-checked on 2026-08-04, one of the more recent verification dates in this set.
Applicants planning for 2027/2028 rather than 2026/2027, who prefer a single university's admission test to the national seat table, and who will get the actual fee band in writing from the university before committing.
Cattolica is listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools as school F0000930. The ECFMG Sponsor Note was present with the graduation-year field including Current when the sponsor notes were checked on 2026-08-04, and the Canada sponsor note was present with a pass at school level for the MCC check. Confirm the exact issued diploma title against the ECFMG Reference Guide for Medical Education Credentials before enrolment. This records the school-level evidence on the audit date and guarantees nothing about certification, residency, registration, or licensure.
